CCBA Exam Dumps : Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA)

The quality criteria that must be satisfied when the BA is defining requirements relationships is necessary. This means that the BA should ensure that each requirement has a clear and valid reason or purpose for being included in the solution scope. A necessary requirement is one that supports a business goal or objective, addresses a problem or opportunity, or satisfies a stakeholder need or expectation.

The other options are incorrect because:

Option A is incorrect because priority is not a quality criteria that must be satisfied when the BA is defining requirements relationships, but a factor that the BA should consider when prioritizing requirements. Priority is the relative importance or urgency of a requirement based on its value, feasibility, risk, or dependency.

Option B is incorrect because complexity is not a quality criteria that must be satisfied when the BA is defining requirements relationships, but a factor that the BA should consider when analyzing requirements. Complexity is the degree of difficulty or uncertainty involved in implementing or maintaining a requirement based on its scope, scale, or interdependencies.

Option D is incorrect because source is not a quality criteria that must be satisfied when the BA is defining requirements relationships, but an attribute that the BA should document when managing requirements. Source is the origin or reference of a requirement such as a stakeholder, document, regulation, standard, etc.

CCBA Exam Questions, question 31

Atomic is a characteristic of a quality requirement that means it cannot be broken down further into smaller requirements. It helps to ensure that the requirement is clear, concise, and complete. Owned, mapped, and allocated are not characteristics of a quality requirement, but rather attributes or relationships of a requirement. References: BABOK Guide v3, page 40; CCBA Mock Test, question 20

 According to the BABOK Guide, the task of prioritizing requirements assesses the value, urgency, dependencies, and risks associated with requirements and designs to ensure that analysis and delivery work is done on the most important ones at any given time1. Prioritization is an ongoing process, with priorities changing as the context changes. The task of prioritizing requirements creates just one output, which is requirements (prioritized). This output is a list or a model of requirements and designs that have been assigned a level of importance or urgency relative to other requirements and designs2. The output of requirements (prioritized) is used as an input for other tasks, such as managing solution scope and requirements, assessing proposed solutions, allocating requirements, and validating requirements3.

The other options are not correct outputs of the task of prioritizing requirements:

Validated requirements are an output of the task of validating requirements, which ensures that the requirements and designs support the delivery of value, fulfill the stakeholder needs, and meet the quality standards3.

Requirements rankings are not a formal output of the task of prioritizing requirements, but rather a possible technique to assign a numerical value to each requirement or design based on a set of criteria2.

Requirements assessment is not an output of the task of prioritizing requirements, but rather a possible technique to evaluate the impact, feasibility, and value of requirements and designs2. References:
